I personally have serious doubts about folding@home.

I put it on my dads machine and I won't go into how, but I swear it caused the failure of his harddrive.

I put it on my internet server and it won't connect to the internet most of the time. As in keeps dialing - and connects and then evenutally times out. And several other ISP probs. All sorted once I closed folding@home.

My father has also noticed more problems with it as well.

I still run it on mine. And god my machine is alwayus having problems. I am seriously considering stopping it.


Other Issues:

Is running at 100% all the time, REALLY safe?

Also, think of the electricity it uses! And extra heat!
